Habitats
Ellobiidae inhabit the tidal zone ( mangroves , coastal meadows , silty soils ) and sufficiently moistened adjacent sections of the coast [2] . Representatives of the subfamily Carychiinae are distributed far from the sea coast, living in forest litter and in wetlands (genus Carychium ), as well as in caves (genus Zospeum , Carychium strygium ) [2] .
